ArXi:2603.21809v1 Announce Type: new Retinal fundus imaging enables low-cost and scalable hypertension (HTN) screening, but HTN-related retinal cues are subtle, yielding high-variance predictions. Brain MRI provides stronger vascular and small-vessel-disease markers of HTN, yet it is expensive and rarely acquired alongside fundus images, resulting in modality-siloed datasets with disjoint MRI and fundus cohorts. We study this unpaired MRI-fundus regime and
